Attached Outbuildings To Number 15 Baldwin House

The attached outbuildings to Number 15 Baldwin House in Barrow-in-Furness are part of a row of three houses that were originally built as a single property in the early 19th century. The buildings are cement rendered with a graduated slate roof and stand two storeys high. The front elevation features a symmetrical arrangement of windows, with two windows in the left house (No.13), two in the middle house (No.14), and three in the right house (No.15).

The original doorway to No.14 has a four-panelled door with an overlight, framed by an architrave beneath a cornice supported by consoles. No.13 has two tripartite windows on the left and another in No.14 on the right, all with decorative surrounds that include sill blocks, pilasters, paterae, and cornices. The windows feature various sashes with glazing bars, while the first floor has 16-pane sashes in No.13 and 6-pane sashes in No.14, all with projecting sills and thin surrounds.

No.15 has undergone alterations, including a new doorway with a corniced surround that replaces the former carriage archway, which is only visible from the rear. This house has 20th-century casement windows with projecting sills and raised surrounds. The range is topped with an ogee cast-iron gutter on blocks, and features rendered end stacks along with three ridge stacks, two of which flank the former carriageway.

At the rear, the wing of No.15 concludes with a one-storey outbuilding, which is in separate ownership. This outbuilding has a side door flanked by large casement windows, and the end gable features an external stack between two ashlar oculi.

Inside, No.14 retains its original staircase and stair hall features, including a blocked arch leading to No.13. No.13 contains a limestone fireplace with acanthus consoles, two mahogany six-panel doors—one set in an architrave with rosettes and the other within a basket arch—and panelled window shutters.
